Bremhaus Cothi Oriental Area Rug

A faded oriental medallion in charcoal-gray with soft pink accents, woven low and dense so it lies flat under furniture from the day it is unrolled.

A cream diamond medallion sits centered in a stepped charcoal field, with muted pink and soft gold picking out the border. Printed faded rather than sharp, so it reads as an heirloom pattern, not a bold statement.

• A low, printed pile

  This medallion is printed into the pile rather than dyed thread by thread, which is what lets the design go this fine without a hand-knotted price tag. The pile itself is woven from polyester and sits almost flat, so the printed detail stays sharp instead of blurring into a taller stack of fiber.

• Sizing a 9 by 12

  This listing is a single 9 by 12 foot rectangle, sized to anchor a full room rather than sit under one piece of furniture. In a living room, get the front legs of the sofa and any chairs onto the rug. Leave a consistent margin of floor showing around the edge so the medallion reads centered.

• Add a rug pad

  A pad is not included, and this low a pile benefits from one underneath. It keeps the rug from slipping on a hard floor, stops the corners from curling into a trip hazard, and adds a bit of cushion this flat weave does not have on its own.

• It will not shed

  Polyester does not shed the way a wool pile does, so there is no cloud of fluff to vacuum up in the first weeks. It does arrive rolled, so expect a curled edge and a crease near the ends at first. Give it a day flat and the roll relaxes on its own.

• Built for daily traffic

  The fiber is rated stain resistant and pet friendly, built for a living room, a dining room, or a hallway that sees daily traffic rather than a room kept for company. It is rated for indoor use, so keep it out of an entryway that takes rain or a covered porch exposed to weather.

• Everyday care

  Blot spills right away rather than rubbing them in; the stain-resistant face keeps most marks on the surface long enough to lift with a damp cloth. Vacuum it regularly on a standard setting, and spot clean anything stubborn with a little mild soap. Deep or set-in stains are a job for a professional cleaner.

• What ships

  The rug ships flat in one box, and nothing else comes with it. A rug pad and any furniture shown in the photos are not included. Check the 9 by 12 foot size against your room before it arrives, since a rug this size is awkward to box back up once it has been unrolled.

• Reading gray and pink

  The gray field shifts cooler or warmer depending on the light in the room, and the pink stays a soft, worn accent rather than the main color. Warm evening light pulls the charcoal toward brown, while daylight keeps it true and cool. Look at it against your own floor and sofa fabric for a day before deciding it fits.

Good to know

• Sized for the whole room, not an accent: 9 by 12 feet anchors a sofa and a table.
• Under a dining table, keep all four chair legs on the rug so chairs clear the edge.
• In a living room, let the sofa's front feet rest on the rug to anchor the seating area.
• None. Unroll onto a hard floor and let it settle flat for a day or two before final placement.
• Furniture and decor shown are styling only. The rug is the product; the size shown is the only size this listing ships.
